| Description: |
The
endless
curves
are
enjoined
in a homage to
misery.
Contrasts of bare hands and unshod feet
emphasise
the
vastness
of this image.
The spectator is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the piece into
the world of single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings.
A constantly
evolving
evanescence,
the essential identity
of which
remains unchanged,
is sometimes in a different form
by the mere presence
of the environment.
``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea'' [Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942] |
